Unfortunately - no. Hotels require a credit card number to secure a reservation. If the guest does not cancel the reservation within the cancellation notice period and does not arrive at the hotel, the hotel will charge the credit card for the first night's accommodation. Without a credit card the hotel risks being left with an empty room, perhaps having referred requests from other protected guests. Please refer to Cancellation Policy for more information.

Once we have received your credit card details, we simply pass them on to the hotel, in order to guarantee / secure your booking.

We will require the credit card number, valid expiration date full name and billing address of the credit card holder.

This refers to the time limit in advance of arrival, before which you are entitled to cancel your booking without incurring a charge. In other words if a hotel has a cancellation policy of 24 hours prior to the date of arrival, and you cancel prior to this time , then you will not incur a charge. However if you cancel less than 24 hours prior to the date of arrival, then a charge will be incurred. This charge will normally be equal to the first nights charges.

In this case a non-arrival fee will be charged against your credit card, normally equal to the cost of the first nights charges.

Rates are quoted in pounds sterling on a per room per night basis, not per person per night.

Reservations may be amended in line with the reservation conditions accepted at the time of original reservation/s. Changes may be made subject to those conditions and any deposit/prepayment held is subject to the cancellation/amendment terms applicable at the time of the original reservation.
Where the reservation permits, any change to the arrival date, departure date or room type is subject to availability and any specific terms that may relate to the amended details at the time the change is requested. Such amendment may result in a rate change.
